3 TRANSGRESSIONS: CULTURAL STUDIES AND EDUCATION Cultural studies provides an analytical toolbox for both making sense of educational practice and extending the insights of educational professionals into their labors. In this context Transgressions: Cultural Studies and Education provides a collection of books in the domain that specify this assertion. Crafted for an audience of teachers, teacher educators, scholars and students of cultural studies and others interested in cultural studies and pedagogy, the series documents both the possibilities of and the controversies surrounding the intersection of cultural studies and education. The editors and the authors of this series do not assume that the interaction of cultural studies and education devalues other types of knowledge and analytical forms. Rather the intersection of these knowledge disciplines offers a rejuvenating, optimistic, and positive perspective on education and educational institutions. Some might describe its contribution as democratic, emancipatory, and transformative. The editors and authors maintain that cultural studies helps free educators from sterile, monolithic analyses that have for too long undermined efforts to think of educational practices by providing other words, new languages, and fresh metaphors. Operating in an interdisciplinary cosmos, Transgressions: Cultural Studies and Education is dedicated to exploring the ways cultural studies enhances the study and practice of education. With this in mind the series focuses in a non-exclusive way on popular culture as well as other dimensions of cultural studies including social theory, social justice and positionality, cultural dimensions of technological innovation, new media and media literacy, new forms of oppression emerging in an electronic hyperreality, and postcolonial global concerns. With these concerns in mind cultural studies scholars often argue that the realm of popular culture is the most powerful educational force in contemporary culture. Indeed, in the twenty-first century this pedagogical dynamic is sweeping through the entire world. Educators, they believe, must understand these emerging realities in order to gain an important voice in the pedagogical conversation. Without an understanding of cultural pedagogy s (education that takes place outside of formal schooling) role in the shaping of individual identity youth identity in particular the role educators play in the lives of their students will continue to fade. Why do so many of our students feel that life is incomprehensible and devoid of meaning? What does it mean, teachers wonder, when young people are unable to describe their moods, their affective affiliation to the society around them. Meanings provided young people by mainstream institutions often do little to help them deal with their affective complexity, their difficulty negotiating the rift between meaning and affect. School knowledge and educational expectations seem as anachronistic as a ditto machine, not that learning ways of rational thought and making sense of the world are unimportant. But school knowledge and educational expectations often have little to offer students about making sense of the way they feel, the way their affective lives are shaped. In no way do we argue that analysis of the production of youth in an electronic mediated world demands some touchy-feely educational superficiality. What is needed in this context is a rigorous analysis of the interrelationship between pedagogy, popular culture, meaning making, and youth subjectivity. In an era marked by youth depression, violence, and suicide such insights become extremely important, even life saving. Pessimism about the future is the common sense of many contemporary youth with its concomitant feeling that no one can make a difference.
4 If affective production can be shaped to reflect these perspectives, then it can be reshaped to lay the groundwork for optimism, passionate commitment, and transformative educational and political activity. In these ways cultural studies adds a dimension to the work of education unfilled by any other sub-discipline. This is what Transgressions: Cultural Studies and Education seeks to produce literature on these issues that makes a difference. It seeks to publish studies that help those who work with young people, those individuals involved in the disciplines that study children and youth, and young people themselves improve their lives in these bizarre times.

9 FOREWORD Buddhist Voices I have argued that one of the main goals of education should be the development of wisdom and compassion (Miller, 2006). Yet how can this be achieved in schools? Dr. Smith has provided one intriguing answer to that question. Working with primary children in Australia, she developed a curriculum that focused on Buddhist stories and meditation. This book is clearly written and is based on a deep understanding of Buddhist concepts such as Dharma and Karma. These concepts are presented in a non-ideological manner, which is consistent with the Buddhist idea of not proselytizing but simply engaging in contemplative practices. Recently there has been much written about bringing mindfulness into education. Valuable as this work has been, this book connects mindfulness and meditation to its deepest roots and provides a comprehensive educational approach. The book is filled with examples that can easily be adopted by teachers. Dr. Smith includes many of the stories she used and the discussions that followed. The stories focused on Buddhist principles but were told in such a way that the ideas became accessible to young children. The book includes many comments by the students as they did meditation and listened to the stories. Dr. Smith also employed a happiness scale so that the students could self-assess the impact of the classes. Educational reforms for the past several decades have focused on accountability measures such as standardized testing. These measures have focused on individual achievement and competition that run counter to the goal of developing wisdom and compassion. Dr. Smith has shown another kind of education is possible which develops kindness and happiness in students. We need to explore the kind of education described in this book if we hope to heal our planet. John (Jack) P. Miller The Holistic Curriculum (2007) and Educating for Wisdom and Compassion (2006) ix
